Baked Oatmeal - Shelf Stable aka pantry meal

This is my first attempt at a shelf stable baked oatmeal recipe.  My kids like it sweet, so it is likely not going to win any contests for low sugar content.


2 cups oatmeal
3/4 cups raisins
3/4 cups chocolate chips
1 cup brown sugar packed
1 tsp baking powder
1 TBS pumpkin pie spice
1 cup canned pumpkin
1/4 cup of butter melted (use Red Feather canned butter or appropriate amount of powdered butter)
1 egg (use appropriate amount of dried egg powder and water to equal 1 whole egg)
1/2 cup of milk (canned, powered & reconstituted, or regular)


Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Combine the first six ingredients in a medium bowl.  Combine the milk, pumpkin, melted butter, and egg in a separate bowl. Add wet mixture to dry ingredients; stir well. Pour into a greased 11" x 7" rectangular baking dish. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until just set.  Let cool for at least one hour for firmer consistency.  Even better the next day.


It was a total success in our house.
